The icecream was delicious! Staff were so sweet! I did not realize it was CASH ONLY until we had our icecream, they let us eat it and then walk down 1 block to the closest ATM. There is a cute bridge/garden!

Super cute outdoor ice cream shop. Serve generous servings of delicious soft & hard ice creams in cones, cups, sundaes & milkshakes. Exterior seating around the shop & also near a small lit bridge over the water with more seating. Only accepts cash, no cards. Big lineups in the summer but it's worth the wait!

This is a cash only establishment!!!Fun little ice cream shop tucked in a convenient corner. We loved the lights and seating area! So many ice cream choices to pick. We tried mint chocolate chip, cookies and cream, pistachio, and cookie dough. The winner was the cookies and cream flavor. All were good flavors!

While visiting Maine this was by far the most popular ice cream spot. The first night we tried but the line was a little toooo long for us so we went back the next day. We loved the atmosphere we loved all the lights and color. They had plenty to choose from. We were a little disappointed they were sold out of the blueberry flavor ice cream BUT the raspberry was delicious and the sea salt caramel was also very tasty. They both had the perfect amount of flavors mixed in!

Hugely Overrated - hands down the worst tasting soft serve ice cream I have ever had. The texture and taste is ice, not cream. You can even see tiny ice crystals in the picture of the cone! I rarely toss food in the trash but this cone lasted just two bites before it meet Mr. Trash.

This place is so cute. Tucked away off the Main Street. The ice cream was delicious and there’s a little walk you can take nearby. They have soft serve, hard ice cream, sundaes, and more with a huge variety of toppings.

Amazing ice cream and milk shakes with malt. Very friendly staff. Perfect location. In the water runs right below it. Cute little foot bridge too.

Prices are cheaper then other towns. Affordable for young people to go for date night. The atmosphere is very nice, with the water, lights, and flowers. The brunette was very sweet and happy and so that makes the experience better. Also, love the doggy atmosphere with watching them eat their own treats. Come here and enjoy.Parking: anywhere, they have a lot up the street, and free limited hours, parking in front of the shops.Bathroom: local library- look for their hours. Bathroom is clean and a quick walk up the street.

The ice cream was tasty. I got a two scoop on a plain cone for $4.50, which is a fair price in my opinion. I had coffee ice cream. I enjoyed the lighting at night as we sat on the deck. They had music playing at a level where it was in the background and we could still carry on conversation. Both hard ice cream and soft serve are available. The girls working the window were super courteous. A nice place to bring your family for a scoop or two.

Lovely little ice cream stand in a lovely area next to a cute walk bridge over the town stream with colorful flowers & benches to sit on while enjoying your ice cream! And enjoy you will as the service was friendly with a smile offering you smooth flavorful ice cream that isn’t too sweet. We went with 2 scoops of Maine black moose and Maine blueberry ice cream in a waffle cone. Enjoyed every bite and lick while relaxing on the picturesque walk bridge. Much better ice cream, service, and ambiance than the other ice cream stand in town - hint hint which ends with the word “Cone” in its name.

Nice place for ice cream. Many flavors to choose from. I had roasted peanut and honey Ice cream and it was amazing. The servers were pleasant and quick which was good as they had quite a line and they kept it moving. They have a huge ambiance help from the local hotel as there is a foot bridge across the stream that the hotel decorates with all kinds of flowers 🌺 it is worth it to go just to see the flowers. I will go again !

What an awesome little ice cream shack. Delish ice cream and just a really cool place right on the little river that goes through town with a cute ped bridge.

Such a cute little location and adorable shop! Unfortunately they were out of a lot of flavors, the ice cream was good though and the shop itself was very cute. There is parking across the street and all around but it is limited on busy days. Worth a trip if you're in the area though! There's a bridge right next to it that would make for some great pictures in the prime of summer.(see photo) Prices are reasonable considering the area too!Dietary restrictions: Gluten freeParking: There is parking across the street and all around but it is limited on busy days.

River Ducks was one of the best ice cream stands I've ever been to. The ice cream was fantastic, and the seating area on the little bridge was quite charming. The woman taking my order also did a fantastic job of anticipating what I was looking for without me even really expressing it, and as a result, I got a new go-to ice cream cone. I wanted just a little bit of hot fudge so as not to instantly melt my soft serve. She understood that concern without me saying it. She went ahead and put the hot fudge in the cone, and it resulted in a delicious treat at the end of my cone. Try it!

A great spot to get some really delicious ice cream. The prices are very reasonable, and there are many flavors to choose from. Service was quick and the nearby bridge provided a pleasant seating area. I had a scoop of coffee ice cream as well as a scoop of maple walnut. Both were creamy and so good. My wife had the Maine blueberry and the ice cream and blueberry swirl were both awesome. Super chill place to visit in Camden!

This ice cream stand is one of the better ones around Camden. The location is nice and the scenery is good as well. They are located next a little bridge that is over a river which makes a nice location for a date. The service is great and they have a wide variety of options. The ice cream really isn't all that special but it isn't bad either! The shakes are really well.

They always have great quality ice cream and are very generous with their portions. Word to the wise, many of you will think their small is a large compared to other places you visit. Keep that in mind before you ask for a large! A lovely little area with a little bridge to sit on and look at the river and flowers.
